A Place Rich in Stories and Cultural Heritage

#chinatravel Panmen Scenic Area is a great place to learn about Suzhou's history and culture. As one of the eight city gates of ancient Wu, it was a vital transportation hub and a military stronghold. I was particularly fascinated by the information on ancient defensive architecture, such as the hidden passages in the barbican and the firing holes on the city wall. You can really get a sense of the wisdom of the ancients. It's also a place that was once bustling with merchants. Visiting here, you can feel the profound history of this 2500-year-old city. It's an ideal destination for anyone who wants to learn about history in a relaxed setting. #citydaytours #travel #thingstodo #myitinerary
